The maximum permissible fording depth is
R
exceeded when traveling through standing
water.
A bow wave forms during fording.
R
Water accumulates when fording.
R
Do not exceed the maximum permissible
#
fording depth.
Drive slowly through water.
#
When driving through flowing water, be
#
aware that the permissible fording depth
is lower due to the accumulation of
water.
The specified value indicates the maximum per-
missible fording depth for vehicles that are ready
to drive. It applies to slow driving through stand-
ing water.
Driving through flowing water reduces tire trac-
tion. The permissible fording depth is then corre-
spondingly lower.
Observe the notes on off-road driving and fording
in the vehicle Operator's Manual.
